"Visit the Kunsthistorisches..." Vienna Things to Do Tip by Paul2001

Visit the Kunsthistorisches Museum.
This is one of the world's great art gallery. What makes it special is not its size but the quality of the works. The paintings that you see here are by artists at their very best. Particularly notable are the works of Pieter Bruegel of which this is suppose to be the largest collection in the world. It's worth going to Vienna just to vist this gallery.
The museum also contains an interesting collection of Egyptian, Roman and Greek artifacts. Unfortunately I was not able to see much of these last sections as the museum was closing up for the night. This brings up the entrance times and fees for the Museum which are:Entrance fees
